Terve Kai!
Sorry for the typos, I was writing this out of the top of my head and I
was tired then.
Reading your two posts, are you saying this could be a bug in the GCC
sources?
To answer your questions:
> What on earth "first stage gcc"?
I understand that the idea of building a cross-compiler would be:
1. Build a cross-binutils for the target platform.
2. Build some kind of cross-gcc for the target platform.
3. Use that cross-gcc (in some howtos referred to as 1st-stage GCC) to
build a glibc for the target platform.
4. Re-build GCC with itself.
Are you saying I need a AIX C library on my Linux host system in order
to be able to build a Linux hosted cross-compiler for AIX? Why?

What is that business? Would you have a pointer to dome f* manual I
could use to educate myself? Even if the AIX C library is not freely
available, I could get a hold of one, but what would I have to do with it?

Torsten

As can be seen the '/usr/lib/libc.a' is tried to be linked in order to
create the 'shr.o' and then
the 'tmp-libgcc_s.a' from it with 'ar' and finally rename this to
'libgcc_s.a'...
This can be a bug or then the 'sysroot'ed "$sysroot/usr/lib/libc.a"
would be used by the 'nm'.
I didn't use the '--with-sysroot=$sysroot' to point to the (unexisting)
AIX5.3 C library... In a
"traditional" crosscompiler build this would be a serious bug in the
gcc-4.2.2 sources, the
'$tooldir/lib/libc.a' should appear here!
